October 24, 2023: Live Guest Christina Ward, author of Holy Food
Christina Ward joins Micah as an in-studio guest on Music of Mind Control to talk about her latest book, Holy Food. Holy Food explores the influence of mainstream to fringe religious beliefs on modern American food culture. Author Christina Ward unravels the numerous ways religious beliefs intersect with politics and economics and, of course, food to tell a different story of America. It's the story of true believers and charlatans, of idealists and visionaries, and of the everyday people who followed them - often at their peril.

and Christina! i gotta get your book -- sounds fascinating! πΊπΊ
i had been going in the vegetarian direction since the mid-1980s -- and i finally went totally vegan around 2000/2001, primarily for animal liberation reasons -- but certainly for not any "religion"! and true, regarding food purity, etc. -- for me, bc i was looking at ingredients labels, it was like a crash course in what is REALLY in your food! and over the years, i have learned that a good number of cults and/or religions *require* a vegetarian or vegan diet

Overall the 'New World' a canvas for Seekers to project the Old World's Edenic conceptions onto it...
The USA being founded by a few Post-Enlightenment rich white males ...but also a mass of Pilgrims & Puritans & the like for whom England ~ Europe were not Religiously Fanatic *enuff*...& this is just in the DNA (so to speak) of what the USA is. They put Separation of Church & State into the Constitution cause they'd seen centuries of Inquisitions & Civil Wars in Europe ...but Europeans look @ the Religion in our Politics & think we're insane. Right ?...
